Incident plans to prepare for a human disaster
Any event that exposes employees to death, or threat of death, can understandably limit their ability to function. So, it’s important that your business continuity plans also have a human element.
Our specialist pre-incident planning service will help you to create a properly thought through incident plan. So senior leaders and managers can sensitively and professionally handle all sorts of traumatic situations.
PREPARING FOR THE UNEXPECTED
Pre-incident planning support
To help leaders stay calm and in control after a human disaster, we can review your existing pre-incident plan. Or help create a new plan, covering everything from liaising with emergency services to training first responders.

Pre-incident planning is the process of considering how an event with the power to disrupt the business, or distress employees, should be handled.

PSYCHOLOGICAL FIRST AID
Pre-incident planning training
First aid after an incident tends to be focused on treating physical injuries, such as cuts and burns. When psychological first aid is equally important for reducing the risk of traumatic injuries, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Our First Responder workshop covers how best to support people after a traumatic event, including:
- Fight, flight and freeze reactions
- Using a compassionate tone
- Helping to re-establish function
- Warning signs to consider
- Directing people to further support services as needed
- Helping without becoming vicariously traumatised
Workshops can be delivered online, or in-person, as required.
